Some of the most God-fearing folks I've encountered are in the long-haired and tatoo'd crowd that plays loud, hard, Christian rock and metal and screamo. These dudes take the Bible seriously and love Jesus, and declare their love of Christ from the stage to the teenagers who attend their events. Then they hop into a 15 passenger van with four smelly musicians, and a wife or two, and a sound guy, and tow their trailor of gear to the next gig five states away.

Blessings to these musicians. They are reaching teenagers in ways that the youth group at your church (if you even have one) is not.

By the way... if you are in the southern Maryland area, please pray for and check out the SevenThirty Club, which offers this music and witness for area teenagers. I've seen 40 teenagers on their knees, giving their lives to Christ, at events at this club. The 7:30 Club is in Mechanicsville MD.

There’s a lot of truth to your post.

And, our church is made up of a good percentage of such folks . . . bikers, now bikers for Jesus etc.
